Naughty Dog, Santa Monica Studios, Media Molecule, Japan Studio, Polyphony Digital, etc. will put great games on PS4. Infamous and MLB The Show are 80+ on PS4 already. Sony’s 1st parties are working on several unannounced PS4 AAA games.

The gaming division is well funded, in a net profit, and making quarterly profits. PSN is being invested in to handle the doubled userbase since Destiny launched.

PS4 is selling on game price/performance, 1st party studios, more developer support including indies and Japanese developers, PS+ value, and better PR.

Multiplatform games are more important than exclusives this holiday so PS4 will dominate in global sales. Xbox will have good sales in the USA but globally it has no chance against PS4.

Multiplatform games are more important than most exclusives and PS4 will have a performance advantage the entire generation with its more powerful hardware.

In the real world, normal people are overwhelmingly still buying PS4s. They don’t care about racing games like Driveclub or Forza or niche games like Sunset Overdrive. They want Ubisoft games, Destiny, GTA V, Call of Duty, and sports games. They mostly don’t care about media player features on a gaming console.
